Aldo Leopold Nature Center Land Steward Work Days

Saturday, September 16, 2017

Help us restore and
maintain ALNC’s prairie, marsh and woodlands! Join us one Saturday a month to
help control invasive species, seed with native plants, get dirty and have some
fun! Volunteer work days will focus mainly on land management projects and invasive
species removal. Land Steward Work Days are scheduled March through November
and may be cancelled due to inclement weather or planned activities may be
modified. Groups are encouraged to contact us to coordinate a specific work
date and schedule. Adults and youth are welcome, however, we ask that youth
must be chaperoned and supervised by an adult. Join us at our Monona campus for
our upcoming volunteer work day! There is no need to sign-up or RSVP...just
show up and ALNC staff will greet you upon arrival. Here are just a few Land
Stewards projects:

Cut honeysuckle and other unwanted brush

Mulch trails

Pull garlic mustard and other “weeds”

Transplant wildflowers

Collect and label seeds

Garden work as needed

Pick up trash
